Yes, as we've been saying all along, but will #Canada learn from other countries? If so, many common critiques of to #CallItFemicide would not longer be valid. See our report at: femicideincanada.ca/callitfemicide.

With rest of #Canada, we remember 22 lives lost in 2020 #NSMassKillings We hope for a future w/ fewer lives lost to male violence, incl. #femicide & acts starting w/ #femicidal motivations. We hope for less individual & #systemtic #misogyny which contribute to these acts. #CallItFemicide

We can finally archive this image! On March 7, 2025, Canada signed the Inter-American Convention on the Prevention, Punishment and Eradication of Violence against Women – also known as Belém do Pará Convention. See: canada.ca/en/women-gen... Now, #CallItFemicide. #CSW69

These & many other #SGRMIs are common in non-lethal #MVAWGl. Frequently, #MVAWG involves more than 1 #SGRMI as shown in the 4 cases below which occurred in #Canada. #CallItFemicide (2/2)

During Women's History Month, it's important to remember that our history is marked by ongoing experiences of male violence. In these 2 posts, learn about #sex/#gender related motives & indicators (#SGRMIs) of #femicide. (1/2) #CallItFemicide

On #IWD2025, help us create education & awareness about #femicide & its #sex/#gender related motives & indicators (#SGRMIs). Help us increase knowledge about why we need to #CallItFemicide globally to prevent #femicide. If you do 1 thing on #IWD2025, read, learn & repost!

Alors que nous nous préparons pour la #IWD2025 le 8 mars, nous reconnaissons et nous nous souvenons des plus de 1 200 femmes et filles tuées, principalement par des hommes, depuis que nous avons commencé ce travail en 2018. #Cestunfémicide #Sesouvenirdemoi

As we prepare for #IWD2025 on March 8, we recognize & remember over 1,200 women & girls killed, primarily by men, since we began this work in 2018. These women & girls will never mark this day again, including the women and girls killed in 2024🔽. #CallItFemicide #RememberMe

Did you know that, in #Canada, in 2024: - at least 154 children were left without a mother. - 10 children were killed alongside their mother. #Femicide leaves many victims, both fatal and living victims, especially children. For more, see: ⤵️

Did you know that #Manitoba, #Saskatchewan, & #NovaScotia have highest rates of women being killed among the provinces in #Canada. Check out our 2024 infographic for more information on #femicide in #Canada. #CallItFemicide

En 2024, 40 des 187 femmes et filles tuées en 2024, principalement par des hommes, restent anonymes. Cela représente 1 femme ou fille tuée sur 5. Leur identité a été cachée. Elles restent invisibles. Pourquoi ? Est-ce que c'est ce qu'elles auraient voulu ? #Cestunfémicide

In 2024, 40 of the 187 women and girls killed in 2024, mostly by men, remain nameless. That's 1 in every 5 woman or girl killed. Their identities have been kept hidden. They remain invisible. Why? Is this what they would have wanted? #CallItFemicide

CFOJA @cfoja.bsky.social · 03/02/2025
For many, we do not have a photo. More disturbing, for many women and girls, we do not have their name. These are the invisible victims of #femicide #CallItFemicide

CFOJA @cfoja.bsky.social · 03/02/2025
2024. These are the numbers of women and girls killed, mostly by men, in our country...🔽 #CallItFemicide In the next post, the faces behind these numbers, at least those we could document.

CFOJA @cfoja.bsky.social · 03/02/2025
Pour beaucoup, nous n'avons pas de photo. Plus inquiétant, pour beaucoup de femmes et de filles, nous n'avons pas leur nom. Ce sont les victimes invisibles du #fémicide #Cestunfémicide

CFOJA @cfoja.bsky.social · 03/02/2025
2024. Ce sont les chiffres des femmes et des filles tuées, principalement par des hommes, dans notre pays...🔽 #Cestunfémicide Dans le prochain billet, les visages qui se cachent derrière les chiffres, du moins ceux que nous avons pu documenter.

CFOJA @cfoja.bsky.social · 03/01/2025
On Dec. 31, 2023, we had documented the killings of 189 women and girls. That number now sits at 193. On Dec. 31, 2024, we documented the killings of 187 women and girls with another 17 labelled suspicious & no sex identified for another 9 deaths. It's time. #CallItFemicide.

CFOJA @cfoja.bsky.social · 02/01/2025
Fin 2024, nous constatons que des femmes et des filles continuent d'être tuées au #Canada tous les 2 jours, en moyenne, quelque part dans notre pays, principalement par des hommes. 2025 sera-t-elle l'année du changement ? Le #Canada va-t-il enfin #Cestunfémicide ?

CFOJA @cfoja.bsky.social · 02/01/2025
At the end of 2024, we see that women and girls continue to be killed in #Canada every 2 days, on average, somewhere in our country, mostly by men. Will 2025 be the year for change? Will #Canada finally #CallItFemicide?

Today, Dec. 6, we pause to remember and the forge on to prevent #femicide and #MVAWG.

Femicide is an epidemic in Ontario, as well as Canada and beyond. For more on this global issue, see: The Routledge International Handbook of #Femicide and #Feminicide buff.ly/45vPjLw

Good question especially since femicide was declared a public health emergency by the World Health Organization years ago. #CallItFemicide
